CollaborationCollaboration experiences assist with opening up the lines of communication for students, teachers, parents and communities. Students love to share with each other and others from outside of the class. They thrive on sharing their expertise and knowledge to people who are interested. Try using these tools when students are expected to work in groups and communicate to complete group projects. They will thank you for the experience! The great thing is that kids will have 24/7 access to their work. Since all of these sites offer storage and interactivity, students no longer need to be sitting at a specific computer or using a particular network.
